" Have you seen a hungry man with a gun? Of course not. Such things don't exist. It's like saying, have you ever seen a hungry lion? Of course not, because as soon as you did he wouldn't be hungry anymore. The men here with guns are the same. They can shoot, arrest, kill anyone they want. They've done it many times before. If a soldier sees you there's nothing I can do to help. Not even God will save a fool. "
